Fantastic!

How can I begin to describe how wonderful Monawar Studios is? They made us feel so loved, kept us on schedule, communicated with us constantly over 1.5 years and made us feel so calm and happy in every message, call, video chat, and encounter! They kept in constant communication with us from our engagement in Punta Cana November 2016, to our engagement pictures in Iowa June 2017, to our move to Colorado for medical school in August 2017, and our perfect wedding back in Galena, IL June 9, 2018! It meant the world to us and I seriously can’t imagine how our engagement and wedding could have been more perfect! It was the wedding of our dreams and so much more!! They are such genuine, kind, hard working, wonderful, and amazing souls that are so rare to find in the world and we are so blessed to have them in our lives. We feel so honored to have had them on the best day of our lives and words cannot express how grateful we are (tearing up again!) to them. Everything from the engagement pictures and timeline planning to our wedding pictures and video extremely exceeded our expectations!!! We recommend Monawar Studios 1,000 stars out of 5 because we knew the final products were going to be amazing but WOOOW! We were truly blown away with the dedication, perfection, creativity, and wonder with every piece of art they created for us! Words cannot describe how grateful we are for recreating the best day of our lives in our amazing video! Every time I watch it it feels like we are getting married all over again and the emotions we felt and still feel on that day come rushing back! It is true talent and vision to be able to capture our raw emotions and put it into a beautiful piece of art. So we say THANK YOU Arsalan, Krystal, and Dan! They are wonderful humans, our friends and family, and we can’t imagine our day and lives without them!! We love you!

It doesn't get any better than Monawar Studios. To say they are full of passion truly is an understatement. Their communication, understanding, and attention to detail is absolutely 100% second to none. They set the bar high for all of us in this industry. I'm blessed and honored every time I get to work with them.

Arsalan was a dream to work with! He was so professional and had a beautiful sneak peek ready for us by the end of our wedding day. He has such an artistic eye and knows exactly how to tell the story of your love in a beautiful and unique way. We are so thankful we were able to work with him and would highly recommend him to anyone looking! Best choice we made!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
